  1. I just paid for mine also.
  2. Please add me to the list. Thanks, Randy
  3. Has anyone purchased the trunk assembly or the service platform from the following website? http://members.cox.net/alvinguy/
  4. Hoppe Fairing, Baron Bag Slash Pipes, Mustang seat
  5. I am not sure if it would fit the Royal Star. I purchased a Hoppe Indsusties Quadzilla Fairing for my bike. It is easy to install and looks great. Very good quality. http://hoppeindustries.com/store/quadzilla-batwing-fairing-royal-star-tour-deluxe-05present-p-37.html Good Luck
  6. I am planning my 8 day September ride from Calgary to Las Vegas. I was playing with different map tools that are available on the web. I stumbled across the Harley Davidson Rider Planner tool. http://www.harley-davidson.com/wcm/Content/Pages/Ride_Planner/Ride_Planner.jsp?locale=en_US I have been using it to map out my trip and have found it to be very useful. You need to create a profile if you want to save your plans. They will even let you create a profile if you ride something other than a Harley.
  7. I sent an email to Ram support center. Their answer: Good Day, We actually suggest the u-bolt base for your bike but there is a chance the RAM-B-309-1U would work. Unfortunately I am unable to find any pictures of the handlebar set up for your bike so I have attached the drawing for the base as well as the instructions. I would check the measurement between the two bolts holding the break or clutch clamp to your handlebars. Hope this helps. Brian Anderson National Products, Inc. 8410 Dallas Ave. S.

  8. I am going to purchase a Ram Mount for my 2006 RSTD. Does anyone know if the Cycle Handle Bar Base (RAM-B-309-1U ) will fit the RSTD? It attaches to the brake/clutch handlebar control bracket . http://www.ram-mount.com/CatalogResults/PartDetails/tabid/63/partid/082065077045066045051048057045049085/Default.aspx
  9. I am using Amsol Synthetic oil. What is the max miles I should travel between oil changes. I have put on 2000 miles since the last change, but I am heading out on a 2500 mile trip in a couple of weeks. Should I change the oil before my trip?
  10. Canadian guys can order from the canadian site www.motorkote.ca. Shipping is $10
  11. I passed a small cruiser last night on a country road. It had training wheels! (sorry no camera) Is it legal to use traing wheels on a public road? It doesn't seem all that safe.
  12. The motorkote website recommends 2 Ounces per quart of oil in the crankcase. HAs any one asked them if it is ok to exceed their recommendation?
  13. I see the Motorkote website says that your MPG may improve with their product. Has anyone experienced a change in MPG?
  14. Joe, How much motorkote do you use? Do you use it every oil change? How long have you been using it? Thanks, Randy
  15. Has anyone ried one of these water bottle holders? http://www.acehighleathers.com/web-content/Pages/Other_fun_Stuff.html
  16. Does anyne have a picture of them installed on a RSTD. The Diamond R website says they are for a RSV, I assume they will still fit a RSTD.
  17. I have my Quadzilla Fairing installed. I have added a couple of photos.
  18. The Quadzilla I ordered just arrived today. I read the install instructions and found that a relay and 15amp fuse are included. They have very clear instructions (with pitcures) showing how to wire the relay. I hope to have it installed before the weekend so I can hit the road for a test ride on Saturday.
  19. I purchased the Quadzilla fairing through a local distributor http://www.destinationcycles.com/ . He was the same price as the Hoppe industries site $ 1695. When I was searching around, Phat had the best price. I decided to support the local guy. He handles all the shipping and customs. I am in Calgary Canada.
  20. I just ordered a Quadzilla fairing. I was wondering if it is installed so that the power to the fairing is off when the key is turned off?
  21. Thanks for the info. I think I will try a couple of MSR bottles in my saddlebags.
  22. Does anyone carry extra fuel on their bike. I am going on a trip that has some long stretches between fuel stops. I can probably make it, but thought it might be a good idea to have a little extra fuel on board. I did a search on the web and found some folks carry fuel in a MSR aluminum bottle. Thoughts or comments?

    Touring Map

    I was wondering if anyone would recommend a good map for Touring. I am riding from Calgary to LasVegas in September. I would like to ride secondary roads and want to make sure I know where all the fuel stops are. Ideally I would like a map book that would cover both Canada and the U.S.
  24. 1. Mustang seat with driver backrest 2. Baron's Bag Slash Slip-ons
  25. I am selling my Yamaha FZ 1000. I don't ride it much since I got my RSTD. I am a little worried about letting potential buyers take the bike for a test ride. Any advice would be appreciated.
